'''''Sonic Nexus''''' is a game being created by Nexus Team, headed by [[Slingerland]] of [[SFGHQ]]. At SAGE 2006, he acquired two more team members in [[Damizean]] and [[DimensionWarped]], also of [[SFGHQ]]. The game currently uses [[Multimedia Fusion]] for its engine, dubbed [[Sonic Worlds]], but will be switching to C++ in the future. The game began development in the summer of 2006 and has had two demo releases, both at the [[Sonic Amateur Gaming Expo]]. It is a critically acclaimed fangame, garnering comments such as, "absolute perfection of the classic Sonic style" from SAGE visitors.  The character lineup will consist of Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles.

'''''Sonic Nexus''''' was a game created by Nexus Team, headed by [[Slingerland]]. The game used the [[Retro Sonic]] engine by [[The Taxman]] who joined the project in 2008. The game began development in the summer of 2006 and had three demo releases, two at the [[Sonic Amateur Games Expo]] and one during the summer of 2008. It is a critically acclaimed fangame, garnering comments such as, "absolute perfection of the classic Sonic style" from SAGE visitors and various blogs.  The character lineup consisted  of Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles.
  
Nexus was originally created from Damizean's "360 Engine v2.0" created in Multimedia Fusion 1.5 by [[Slingerland]], with assistance by [[Damizean]] to point him in the right direction.  The first demo was created in the 3 days prior to the 2006 [[Sonic Amateur Gaming Expo]]. After the successful, inital showing at SAGE 2006, DimensionWarped and Damizean became full time members and the project took on a much larger scope.
+
In 2011, [[The Taxman]] announced that in early 2010 the merged game ''Retro Sonic XG'' merged with ''[[Sonic Nexus]],'' forming the newly merged title ''[[Retro Sonic Nexus]]''. Most of the levels from Nexus were added to the game and updated to the XG art style.
  
Damizean and DimensionWarped are currently the lead programmers and Slingerland is the project's director, manager, and level designer.  The three all contribute to the game's background art.  The music is provided by Hunter Bridges, known as Sage/hRook on [[SFGHQ]]. Ryan Cordel, a spriter, joined Nexus Team in 2007 and he began revamping finished graphics and creating new backgrounds and badniks.  TRD of [[SFGHQ]] also works on badniks.  In late 2007, [http://rgxsupersonic.deviantart.com/ RgxSuperSonic] was recruited to do the intro and outro cutscenes in flash.

Sonic Nexus’ development began in August of 2006 as a one-act demo at the 2006 Sonic Amateur Games Expo. The original demo was created in Multimedia Fusion 1.5 in the 360 v2.0 Sonic engine by Damizean. It featured the second zone of the game, Cosmic Chaos, a casino paradise.

The project moved an MMF2 engine, [[Sonic Worlds]], and the larger development team went to work on the SAGE 2007 demo. The water level featured in the demo, Pristine Palisade, illustrated the shortcomings of Multimedia Fusion 2. Lack of object management, resulting in horrendous lag for low-end computers, was the main factor. The project's scope was too much for MMF2 to handle and it was announced that Nexus would move to a new engine to be written from the ground up. A few months into this new engine’s development, Damizean asked [[The Taxman]], for assistance. Damizean simply wanted to use a build of [[Retro Sonic]] as a base and point of reference for the foundation of the new engine, but after challenges adapting to this code, Taxman instead offered to further enhance the current XG build of the Retro-Sonic engine for Nexus.

The game began development in the summer of 2006 and had three demo releases, two at the Sonic Amateur Games Expo and one during the summer of 2008. It is a critically acclaimed fangame, garnering comments such as, "absolute perfection of the classic Sonic style" from SAGE visitors and various blogs. The character lineup consisted of Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles.

In 2011, The Taxman announced that in early 2010 the merged game Retro Sonic XG merged with Sonic Nexus, forming the newly merged title Retro Sonic Nexus. Most of the levels from Nexus were added to the game and updated to the XG art style.

Development History

Sonic Nexus’ development began in August of 2006 as a one-act demo at the 2006 Sonic Amateur Games Expo. The original demo was created in Multimedia Fusion 1.5 in the 360 v2.0 Sonic engine by Damizean. It featured the second zone of the game, Cosmic Chaos, a casino paradise. Nexus' first demo was originally created by Slingerland and Damizean.

The project moved an MMF2 engine, Sonic Worlds, and the larger development team went to work on the SAGE 2007 demo. The water level featured in the demo, Pristine Palisade, illustrated the shortcomings of Multimedia Fusion 2. Lack of object management, resulting in horrendous lag for low-end computers, was the main factor. The project's scope was too much for MMF2 to handle and it was announced that Nexus would move to a new engine to be written from the ground up. A few months into this new engine’s development, Damizean asked The Taxman, for assistance. Damizean simply wanted to use a build of Retro Sonic as a base and point of reference for the foundation of the new engine, but after challenges adapting to this code, Taxman instead offered to further enhance the current XG build of the Retro-Sonic engine for Nexus.

After missing SAGE 2008 due to extensive development time, as the new RSDK had to be re-built from the ground up, the 2008 Nexus demo released after the show to much acclaim.

Due to professional endeavors by the core members of the team, production was put on hold and the development blog disappeared. Following his work on the official remake of Sonic CD, The Taxman announced in 2011 that the game had been merged with Sonic XG and Retro Sonic to form Retro Sonic Nexus.
